Running the pingzero/racetech/monkey motorsport club stand at Armageddons across the country this year has been epic.
Running competitions and making it the way I always wanted after getting annoyed when brands stuffed basic things up in past years. (e.g. using a short oval track one year)
Giving away prizes (great to work with logitech alongside the MMC sponsorship)
The stand was always popular with a queue to have a turn on the sim rigs all day long. Sim racing at armageddon was a huge success.
Totally astounding that they even happened. Totally bizarre to attend right after a long period of lock down essentially in isolation then suddenly surrounded by thousands of people. Even more bizarre when considering so many places in the world were still in those lock downs without any gatherings allowed.

After Armageddon Auckland the MMC crew headed out to blastacars and had blast on their drift karts.
